About Simone

Simone Phillips is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who centers her work on evidence-informed therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict, and the effects of trauma.

Background and approach

She cultivates a compassionate environment where people can examine patterns, learn practical coping skills, and address issues like attachment wounds, codependency, and communication difficulties. With three years of clinical experience, Simone integrates a range of approaches including DBT skills, mindfulness practices, psychodynamic insight, and solution-focused strategies to tailor care to each person’s needs.

Her practice pays particular attention to concerns such as abandonment, caregiver stress, divorce and separation, domestic violence, infidelity, and feelings of emptiness, while also addressing guilt, shame, impulsivity, jealousy, and narcissistic dynamics. Simone practices in Nevada and offers sessions in English.

She holds the NV LCSW 10969-C credential and works with adults seeking to build resilience, improve emotional regulation, and navigate life transitions using collaborative, skills-based therapy.

Combining evidence-based approaches with online care

Simone frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, stress, and many relationship challenges. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach concrete skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness which can be especially helpful when emotions feel overwhelming.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Simone works with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and life circumstances and adapts methods over time so that therapy fits each person's needs and pace.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats allow clients to engage in skills practice, reflective work, and problem solving from locations that suit their schedules while maintaining continuity of care with a licensed professional.
